About Cabling Installation & Maintenance

Our mission: Bringing practical business and technical intelligence to today's structured cabling professionals

For more than 30 years, Cabling Installation & Maintenance has provided useful, practical information to professionals responsible for the specification, design, installation and management of structured cabling systems serving enterprise, data center and other environments. These professionals are challenged to stay informed of constantly evolving standards, system-design and installation approaches, product and system capabilities, technologies, as well as applications that rely on high-performance structured cabling systems. Our editors synthesize these complex issues into multiple information products. This portfolio of information products provides concrete detail that improves the efficiency of day-to-day operations, and equips cabling professionals with the perspective that enables strategic planning for networks’ optimum long-term performance.

Throughout our annual magazine, weekly email newsletters and 24/7/365 website, Cabling Installation & Maintenance digs into the essential topics our audience focuses on.

  • Design, Installation and Testing: We explain the bottom-up design of cabling systems, from case histories of actual projects to solutions for specific problems or aspects of the design process. We also look at specific installations using a case-history approach to highlight challenging problems, solutions and unique features. Additionally, we examine evolving test-and-measurement technologies and techniques designed to address the standards-governed and practical-use performance requirements of cabling systems.
  • Technology: We evaluate product innovations and technology trends as they impact a particular product class through interviews with manufacturers, installers and users, as well as contributed articles from subject-matter experts.
  • Data Center: Cabling Installation & Maintenance takes an in-depth look at design and installation workmanship issues as well as the unique technology being deployed specifically for data centers.
  • Physical Security: Focusing on the areas in which security and IT—and the infrastructure for both—interlock and overlap, we pay specific attention to Internet Protocol’s influence over the development of security applications.
  • Standards: Tracking the activities of North American and international standards-making organizations, we provide updates on specifications that are in-progress, looking forward to how they will affect cabling-system design and installation. We also produce articles explaining the practical aspects of designing and installing cabling systems in accordance with the specifications of established standards.

Major Crypto Heist: Infini Loses $49.5 Million

In a shocking cyberattack, Hong Kong-based neobank and stablecoin payment platform Infini suffered a massive security breach, resulting in the loss of approximately $49.5 million in USDC. This incident has once again raised concerns about security in the crypto industry, particularly regarding asset protection and smart contract vulnerabilities.

Details of the Infini Hack

On February 24, 2025, blockchain security experts from CertiK identified unauthorized fund transfers linked to Infini’s smart contracts. Exploiting a vulnerability in the contract’s administrative privileges, the attacker drained $49.5 million in USDC. The stolen funds were then converted into DAI and subsequently used to purchase 17,696 ETH, which was transferred to a newly created wallet.

Recent Crypto Exchange Attacks

  • Bybit Hack (February 21, 2025): One of the largest crypto exchanges, Bybit, fell victim to a large-scale attack, resulting in the loss of $1.5 billion in Ethereum. Hackers exploited a vulnerability in the transfer of assets from cold wallets to warm wallets, gaining access to funds and moving them to unknown addresses. CEO Ben Zhou reassured users of the platform’s solvency and stated that efforts are underway with blockchain security experts to track and recover the stolen assets.

  • North Korean Cybercrime Suspicions: Following the Bybit breach, experts began suspecting North Korea’s Lazarus Group—a notorious cybercrime organization known for executing some of the largest crypto heists, including the $615 million Ronin Network hack in 2022. While no official confirmation has been made, the sophisticated nature of the attack has led experts to consider state-sponsored involvement.

Implications for the Crypto Industry

The incidents involving Infini and Bybit serve as critical warnings about the vulnerabilities facing crypto exchanges, neobanks, and DeFi platforms. Regular security audits, stringent control over administrative privileges, and the implementation of advanced protective measures are essential to mitigating risks.

With the growing threat posed by cybercriminal organizations and state-backed hacking groups, the crypto industry must focus on developing stronger security protocols, collaborating with blockchain analytics firms, and fostering information-sharing initiatives to prevent future attacks.
